Biography
I am a postdoc researcher at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ. Originally from France, I completed my PhD on off-centre mergers of massive black holes in dwarf galaxies. My current research focuses on the mergers of supermassive black holes in elliptical galaxies. I tackle these questions through both theoretical idealized models and N-body simulations.
